Edward Christopher Sheeran, MBE (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter. In early 2011, Sheeran independently released the extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project. After signing with Asylum Records, his debut album, + (pronounced "plus"), was released in September 2011. It topped the UK and Australian charts, reached number five in the US, and has since been certified eight-times platinum in the UK.
The album contains the single "The A Team", which earned him the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. In 2012, Sheeran won the Brit Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards, where he performed the song with Elton John.
ED Sheeran’s huge property empire is now worth £61.5m after he splashed out on new houses in lockdown. According to new documents filed under the singer’s two firms, Maverick Properties Limited and Maverick Commercial Properties Limited, with Companies House, he’s added £4.5m worth to his portfolio.
Ed, who is worth a reported £200m, snapped up the properties for cash - as the documents don’t show any mortgage payments. Back in February, The Sun reported that Ed owned 27 houses, flats and commercial properties - including his huge estate in Suffolk, restaurant Bertie Blossoms and a mansion in London where he stays in the capital.
